Capt. B. F. Binkley exhibited to
an American reporter yesterday a
letter from Judge c. H. Heiskell, of
Memphis, to Judge East, of this city,
which contains some interesting pro-
hibition figures. This letter was writ
ten Aug. 26 at Rogersville.
He states that in company with Mr..
w. ]. Lyle he has been stumping and
carefully canvassing that portion OF
the State. From satisfactory evidence
he concludes that Hawkins County
will give 1000 majority for theamend-
ment, Hancock County 1000. Sulli.

and Washington County 500.

Well, Nh. New Era, who do .you
think represents the Church of God?
Is it Kinney, Or Vertrees, or the
fraternity Of the liquor ring?
What did Kinney do with the two
barrels of liquor that he Gas l am

it to civilize the Churches and Sum
day schools of McMinnville? or to
stimulate anti prohibitionism on Fri
day following? or what was it for?
Is the New Era with its dual edi-
tors the gospel and Apostles to the
people?
Lest we may be thought to misrep-
resent the New Era we give its word
ing verbatim:
"Today in McMinnville while the
church and Sunday school is arrayed
against the men of the State as would
be law makers, to hunt men to the

Why does not the "great moral
movement" clamor for the right of
women to vote in Tennessee as it did
in Iowa in July last, and as it did in
its National conventions of 1876 and
1SSO?-New Era.
Simply because the women of Ten
nessee have no desire whatever to
vote, and female suffrage has noplace
in the wishes of the prohibitionists OF
Tennessee. Because the prohibition
movement in Tennessee is no politi.
cal party measure, and has no con.
nection with any political party, as
the Era so foolishly and vainly tries
to show. 1t is purely and simply a
fight of the home against the saloon.
and it is perfectly natural hat the
sympathies Of every good woman in
Tennessee should be for prohibition
and that they should use their united
influence for its success.
